Sergio and his team did great work on my laminate floor & baseboard moulding installation project. They had great attention to detail, problem solving skills, worked quickly, and the end result was excellent. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is due to a misunderstanding on their part of my detailed job request that led to an awkward discussion. It ultimately got resolved amicably. I would hire again, but make sure to clarify expectations before starting work.

I was thoroughly pleased with the work completed by Mr. Lopez. He was very professional and punctual. He rescued me from my impulsive DIY project and made my inexpensive laminate flooring look high end. Mr. Lopez was very detail oriented in all areas where the laminate was installed. I would definitely recommend him for laminate flooring installation.

I had a wonderful experience with Correa Drywall. Christian Correa (owner) was an excellent worker, his skills with dry wall exceeded my expectations. But what I really like about Christian was his attitude! He always cheerful and positive even though when he ran into difficult situations that need to be resolved. He also does painting, floor works (tiles, laminate & hard wood). I highly recommended this company to anyone that needs these services.

We had CMC put in laminate flooring throughout the entire first floor and half of our second floor. The work came out excellent, and the workers were extremely knowledgeable and skilled. We did a complete walk-through after the job was done, and we showed concern about a few areas. Chris arranged for workers to come out the next day to work on our concerns at no charge. I was highly impressed with their commitment to good work and happy customers. I would highly recommend these guys! Very reasonable cost with quality work, a winning combination!

I recently decided that our carpet had to go for pet and allergy reasons, and wanted laminate flooring installed. After getting several estimates, I decided to go with Rob. Rob gave me a very reasonable estimate, was responsive and helpful throughout the project, asked minimal help from us in moving things around (only clothes near the floor and breakables), and best of all did a fantastic and professional job with the flooring installation. I am thrilled with it. I also appreciated Rob's willingness to deal like a person and not nickel-and-dime over minor issues. I would hire him again.

I got laminate floors installed and Jenn was VERY patient with me while I tried to decide the color I would pick. She brought me different planks of flooring to my house an hour away and listened to what I liked. After the job was done, and my furniture was in, I LOVED THE job. Not to mention that her crew was amazing and did an excellent job. I would recommend this company! !!! Thank you Jenn!

Chris and his crew refinished all our downstairs flooring and installed site finished red oak throughout upstairs. Love our floors!! Was concerned with the timeline as we only had two weeks to complete the job before we had to move in and they finished on time as promised. Would definitely recommend Epic flooring to others.

Nick is extremely knowledgeable and is doing a phenomenal job. He was also instrumental in saving me $100's of dollars by providing my hardwood flooring installers a tip to eliminate cementing a part of the flooring. Highly recommend Nick and will use him for other home projects.

In early May I had a pipe burst in my kitchen. I quickly saw there was significant damage. Through a friend I was introduced to Bobbie Jones. He came in accessed the damage and helped me file with my insurance and began a large clean up job. Bobbie sucessfully removed mildewed sections of walls that the water damage recovery missed; then put the sections of the walls back so seamlessly that you can't tell where a repair was done. He continued to do the same quality work as he replaced all my floors down stairs (living room & kitchen in vynl wood, kitchen in tile). He continued to do a high quality job replacing my front and back doors, vent covers, and even a few eletrical socket or covers. Bobbie always acted professionally, provided a work schedule, and was prompt. Bobbie explained each step to me in a way I could understand, and took the extra time to make sure I understood what potential unexpexted difficulty we might encounter.
Over all Bobbie not only did a high quality work, but you could tell he took pride in his work and enjoyed what he did. It's rare to find this level of quality, professionalism, and personabness in our curent culture. I was very blessed to have Bobbie work on my house.

We hired Dan to install tile flooring in our kitchen. We are very satisfied with the finished product. He is hard working and a very nice gentleman. We would recommend him to help anyone with projects they would like to get done. His price was very reasonable for all the hard work he had to do.

I needed new carpeting, some vinyl with repair to the underlayment, and to have hardwoods refinished. I chose Ortiz Flooring from the 5 companies that responded to and quoted my Thumbtack request. Alvaro was wonderful from the start, he came to the house with samples and provided a quote immediately. He responded to all my questions and requests without delay. He was at all times very pleasant, professional and easy to work with. His price was very good, and within my budget.
The results: I could not be happier! The carpeting is beautiful, the vinyl and repaired floor is nice and solid. The refinished hardwoods are stunning. Everything was completed with care and precision, I absolutely can not find any part of the job that isn't perfect! Alvaro took care of everything, and his crews left no mess at all. I would not hesitate to recommend Ortiz Flooring to my very best and most particular friends, and if I ever need more flooring Alvaro will be the only person I call.

One of the best flooring experiences I have ever had. Extremely fair pricing , very knowledgeable and excellent responsiveness. His crew took on a fairly difficult laminate floor install on a house from the 50's and I couldn't be more impressed by the outcome. I would highly recommend Juvy and his team for all flooring needs !!!

I went with my gut instinct and chose Kimberley and Patrick to re-tile my guest bathroom floor. They were quick to respond and answered all of my questions. The thing that set them apart from the rest was that they eased my concern about leaving subcontractors at my house to help with the job. They assured me that it would just be the two of them, and they held to their word. They estimated how long the job would take, and they worked very hard to make that happen. Highly pleased and definitely have them on my "call list" should I need any other projects completed (which knowing me...I will!). Great job, guys!

I relocated out of state and in the interim I put my house for sale. My realtor showed me some estimates without remodel. After reviewing the comparables in the area I decided to put some work into it and am I glad I did. Like many of us there was a budget to stay within. Pondered my options for a short while then I hired Alan to do some bathroom remodel, painting, deck, tile work, laminate flooring, and a variety of small jobs including electrical and plumbing work. When the projects were completed my husband tried to talk me into keeping the house because it looks so nice LOL He traveled quite a distance and did a great job. What I was equally impressed with was after his work was done he stuck through the entire inspection process for my closing. The house was only on the market for 4 days and I received full offer. Pretty impressive to me. Good listener, nice work, and just as important Alan had that old fashion work ethic. Took pride and showed up when he said he would on all occasions. I think he was just as concerned in my budget as I was even when he was purchasing supplies for me. I am definitely grateful to had found someone affordable and hard-working who actually cared and did a great job. I would definitely recommend Alan Melton.

They offered the absolute best price out of all the folks we contacted to install laminate flooring in the downstairs of our home. I had a certain style of laiminate in mind and they were actually able to guide me through the purchase of it through their vendor at a much discounted price. I think i was able to get as much as 10% off of what we had originally expected to pay. I definitely highly recommend them!

Q & A

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thumbtack.

How long does it take to install a hardwood floor?

Hardwood floor installation can take anywhere from a few days to more than two weeks, depending on demolition, wood type, the condition of your subfloor, total square footage of the project, and installation method. Demolition is necessary if you have existing flooring you want to replace with hardwood floors. New-construction homes do not require this step, as the subfloor is primed and ready for floor installation. During demolition, the flooring crew may find that your subfloor has damaged wood, uneven surfaces or other problems that must be addressed before the new wood can be laid down. Crews may charge on an hourly rate for subfloor repair, and the work can take a few hours to several days, depending on what’s hiding underneath your floor. The wood for your new floor generally arrives a few days before any work begins. This allows the wood to acclimate to the relative humidity in your house, which prevents it from shrinking or expanding after installation and causing gaps or buckling. The actual wood installation may take several days or more, depending on the size of your home and what type of custom cutting and designs are desired. If your flooring is not prefinished, the unfinished wood must then be sanded and stained in the home to treat and protect your new investment. Typically, stain takes a full day to dry, and multiple coats are applied. Baseboards and trim must also be installed. With all these variables at play, you can see why it’s important for a wood installation pro to provide an estimate only after seeing your home.

How much does it cost to install flooring?

On average, Thumbtack customers nationwide pay $5,500 for floor installation. The cost can range much lower or higher depending on the type of flooring you select (laminate is far less expensive than exotic hardwood), the square footage of the project, and other important variables like demolition and repair work needed. Here are some examples of average floor installation cost:

How much does it cost to install hardwood floors?

The cost of hardwood floors will depend primarily on the total square footage of flooring, the type of wood you select, the cost of labor in your region, and any preparation or repair work that needs to take place before installation. Selecting exotic woods, such as teak, will result in a higher cost for the project than a more affordable wood such as oak. The national average cost of hardwood floor installation is $5,750. Here are some examples of different woods and their average costs; actual costs will vary depending on the factors listed above.

Residential installation, total project cost: ~ $2,400 with five days of labor.

¾-inch dark stained maple installed on top of new concrete in three rooms, a hallways, and a staircase.

Cost for total project: ~$3.87 per square foot.

How much are oak hardwood floors?

Installing oak hardwood floors can add value and beauty to your home. The cost of hardwood floors is typically based on the overall square footage of your new floor, the type of oak you select, any repair work your subfloor requires prior to installation, and any demolition costs to remove your old flooring. Other factors that will affect your total cost can include the regional cost of labor and business overhead of your flooring company.

A flooring installation company may charge $3 per square foot for standard installation. For hand-scraped (higher-end) ¾-inch oak planks, the cost is approximately $7 per square foot, for a total cost per square foot of about $10 as long as no repair work is required. Standard oak planks are available from big-box stores for as low as $3 per square foot, so the quality of oak you want will affect your total project cost.
